  text: "Novel industrial wireless applications require wideband, real-time channel\r\ncharacterization
    due to complex multipath propagation. Rapid machine motion\r\nleads to fast time
    variance of the channel's reflective behavior, which must be\r\ncaptured for radio
    channel characterization. Additionally, inhomogeneous radio\r\nchannels demand
    highly flexible measurements. Existing approaches for radio\r\nchannel measurements
    either lack flexibility or wide-band, real-time\r\nperformance with fast time
    variance. In this paper, we propose a correlative\r\nchannel sounding approach
    utilizing a software-defined architecture. The\r\napproach enables real-time,
    wide-band measurements with fast time variance\r\nimmune to active interference.
    The desired performance is validated with a\r\ndemanding industrial application
    example."

  text: Wireless industrial environments are dominated by multipath propagation and
    interference. In order to handle spatial diversity, a possible approach is dividing
    the physical area into many small cells. The spatial diversity is turned into
    FDMA by utilizing different frequency bands for neighboring cells. A challenging
    use case with fast vehicles traveling over long distances in a short time is the
    packaging industry. It would require many fast handoffs for each vehicle. Thus,
    a small cell FDMA approach is not appropriate. Conversely, employing radiating
    lines eliminates FDMA-based handoff issues, and reduces multipath delay spread
    and signal attenuation compared to centralized approaches. Additionally, radiating
    lines perform well in high-speed, low-power and long-range environments. In this
    paper, we realize a novel radiating-line-based, high-reliable, real-time transmission
    system with near-field coupling. This wireless transmission method results in
    a frequency-flat, time-invariant radio channel for the given requirements. Employing
    antenna diversity results in significant improvements in the system's performance
    compared to single antenna solutions.
